[psl] Tim and Kon's Excellent Adventure
Another night, another weirdo criminal causing trouble in Gotham. Right now Condiment King was trying to hold up the Gotham branch of the First National Bank. His condiment guns had definitely been upgraded since Tim last saw him. Now, he could manage a very acidic mustard, vinegar, ketchup, relish, and nutella.
The last one was the one that posed the most risk, given how many people had nut allergies. Which meant of course that he had to be taken down before he plastered someone with it that was allergic.
Kon was a long way from Smallville. In the past, he would've just jumped in and probably wrecked the street or something, but he'd long since learned not to just barrel into a situation until he knew what was going on.
That meant, just for a moment, as Condiment King tried to fight his way away from the bank, that he got to watch Tim work. Which was impressive, as usual.
Still, right now, he didn't know whether to help or just laugh his butt off. To start with, he settled with watching, just to make sure the condiment thing was really the only ace up this guy's sleeve.
You have got to be kidding me...

Even if it wasn't speedster fast. "So I'd steal 'em all and everyone would be tragically donut-less and I'd make it so nobody could get them back."
That was a way better plan than blowing shit up.
Kon paused as he sat there.
"Now I'm making myself hungry. Did you bring any bat-snacks in your utility belt?"

She squints for a second at the guy who's just walking up to the building. "All right, that's him."

Why forty? Who knew. It just came into his head.
He looked to Tim, waiting for his cue to jump in and go after the guy. So far, that'd been his way of not messing it all up. He was pretty proud of his self-restraint, truth be told. Following very basic instructions was something he'd once found challenging in the past.

She does try to convince him to stop this plan himself, since he hasn't event set off any explosives, but partway through the conversation her commlink crackles into life and she gets a message from Oracle that Jervis Tetch is active and has apparently kidnapped several people and retreated to a small abandoned amusement park, because of course he has. Tim abruptly stops negotiating and just knocks Julian out. She stays just long enough to make sure the police get him and his explosive before heading back to Kon.
"All right, the Mad Hatter's out and kidnapping people. We need to deal with him."

He pointed a finger at his ear.
"Want me to listen for them? If you can get me a sound byte on Mad Hatter or one of the victims I can see if I can hear them somewhere in the city. Unless you already know where they are."
He'd found Tim that way once and he was getting good with all his secondary powers. One thing Kal always emphasized was that there was more to the hero thing than just punching things. When Kon asked him for help on how to use all the "add-ons," Kal had made it clear how useful they could be in finding the people that needed help.
